Even so, It is extremely difficult : to figure just how. Connie Mack' formidable cast can be stopped, from I making It four in a row, and a, league record, unless the opposition. : has some novel plans, hitherto con cealed, to check Grove, , Earnshaw, i Walberg, Simmons, Cochrane end i PoxX. ' V ! Strong Favorites ! So long as the A's have thiB six ply backbone, they cannot be re garded otherwise than, as strong favorites again, to win the. American, league flag. Their . pitching out classes .that of any other club in. the league. They have the punch, to slug it out with any rival, even the. Yankees, and Connie .Mack's re serve strength, on .which lie rode down,', the., stretch, last season, looks' to be even better. ; Mack is the only American league manager who has ever held a cham pionship combination virtually intact for more than three seasons. He made few changes ia the outfit that won four, out of five pennants from, 1910 to 1914. In the past three years' of rulershlp, Mack has made only ons'. alteration' in the regular lineup, at Shortstop. . Except for a, reversible. Infield feature, by which Poxx moves to third and the .newcomer, Oscar Rocttger, to first, the Athletics will start the 1932 season with the same lineup that dropped the world series to the Cardinals. . . i ; Fears Yankees . ..Mack admits real fear of the Yan kees and their "murderers' row': but it Is difficult .to see how the, New Yorkers can displace the A's without big.

Although the rest of the American league clubs manifest improvement, j especially the Browns and White Sox, f Washington Is the only other one ; Justifiably considered a pennant pos- ; siblltty. The Senators couldn't stand the pace last year but they have speed; pitching and defensive strength to which has been added the punch of "Outfielder Carl Reynolds. ' If Cleveland could combine 'its best, features with those of Washing ton I this would be a different. story The Indians carry a real sock, which has been esp3c tally damaging to the Yankees, but their defense is spotty , and they still lack a first class short- j stop.
